TCU will never win a national championship as long as they are in the MWC. Mark it. Also, GP could still be gone this year, next year, or any year following if the right offer came along. I like Mike's comments. Maybe he's not the type of risk taker it would take to make it in a big time program. He's comfortable, and afraid to leave the friendly confines of TCU, where he is KING. The Big 12 or SEC or Big 10 for that matter would expose GP for what he really is. Hmmm...never considered GP to be afraid of exposure? He certainly doesn't project a very confident image. Sully may be on to something here. |

Too obvious. Your hard count is too hard.

I'm serious. GP is the D1 version of Todd Dodge circa 2005. See what happened to Dodge when he got greedy and stepped out of that safe haven?

haha, I think Dodge just lost the recruiting wars. he is clueless in that area which is about 90% of the college game.
his next mistake was that he hired bad Defensive coaches. Hire a good DC and leave the defense to him.
The offense actually scores points, even with the zero talent they have.

I was shocked to read this morning of GP's position on a playoff system. Patterson has said a playoff would be too hard on student-athletes trying to juggle final exams in December with three or four potential playoff games. Plus, Patterson has argued, the player’s bowl experience would be lost in a playoff with teams spending less time at a specific bowl destination.
To me, this lends credence to Finch's theory about mid majors and a playoff system. Much easier for a team to play cupcakes all year, fluke into a national championship game and pull a win out of their ass than to actually earn a championship by competing all years against a strong schedule. Patterson and TCU certainly appear to be favoring the easy way. Good call, Mr. Finch. Thank you sir. What I don't get is how these kids can manage final exams during the playoffs in high school but some how they can't pull it off in college. That excuse just doesn't hold water for me. Not to mention they have unlimited resources for help with their classes in college, something I doubt many high schools offer. |

Some people are not wired for the big time. Said Bobby Petrino, Nick Saban, Steve Spurrier, and Lane Kiffin. |

All those guys coach in a BCS conference. The NFL is not even the same business.
